Nokia Booklet 3G Available For £650 From January

Nokia will be selling its not-a-netbook device from January 2010 in the UK for a staggering, jaw dropping, eye popping manufacturer's suggested price of £650 including VAT, a price that makes it one of the most expensive netbooks on the market.

Nokia however is betting that mobile phone operators will be bundling the device with data contracts, giving it away for free - although we fail to see why they would choose this laptop over say, the Asus EEE PC 1008HA which cost half the price.

Our Comments

Nokia has already signalled that it will be building another Booklet 3G soon in 2010 and we're convinced that it will have to be a cheaper one, possibly equipped with Maemo but definitely running on an Intel platform. Expect it to go on sale by the second half of 2010.
